About
Enzamide 160mg Capsule contains Enzalutamide as its active ingredient. It is an antineoplastic medication classified as an androgen receptor inhibitor, used in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer, particularly in patients who no longer respond to hormonal therapy or surgery.
This medication should not be used if you are allergic to any of its components. During treatment, your doctor may regularly monitor Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) levels—a protein produced by the prostate that tends to increase in prostate cancer—to track disease progression and treatment response. Additional tests, such as liver function tests and complete blood count (CBC), may also be conducted to watch for potential complications.
Enzamide 160mg Capsule can increase the risk of seizures, especially in patients with a seizure history, so caution is advised. Grapefruit and grapefruit juice should be avoided while on this medication, as they can raise the drug levels in the body and increase the risk of side effects.
This medicine is not recommended during pregnancy, as it may cause harm to an unborn baby. It may also affect fertility, so inform your doctor if you have any fertility concerns before starting treatment. Both men and women should use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 3 months after the final dose of Enzamide 160mg.
